Key LNP Documents

The following documents are considered “key” to production of the LNP and should be read by all taking part in development of the plan. It is likely that many of these documents will undergo change as the LNP is developed.

The initial letter (25 May 2012) from the LVS to village can be found here. This outlines the stages in the decision making to define a Neighbourhood Plan, identifies some key groups in plan production and suggests dates for initial Neighbourhood planning meetings.

The Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Linton Neighbourhood Plan are available here.

The Guiding Principles to be used in generation of the Linton Neighbourhood Plan can be found here.

The linked document contains the letter sent to Leeds City Council, the PSA and a map illustrating the sites encompassed by the assessment. (October 13 2012).

Highways Assessment

On behalf of the Steering Group the Drafting Committee commissioned a Highways Assessment. At the meeting of the Steering Group held on 6th December 2012 a brief presentation of the key results and conclusions was made.

Village Priorities

At the Steering Group Meeting of 17th April 2013 a Draft list of Village Priorities was presented for discussion. This list was constructed with reference to the Background Documents (listed at the top of this page); the areas to be Protected, areas for Improvement and Assets of community value (PIA see lower down this page) and the responses to the Village Survey which was performed in Autumn 2012. The background to the survey, how it was constructed, who was involved in designing the survey and the survey itself (along with results) can be found here.

The list of Village Priorities as approved by the Steering Group Meeting held on 16th May 2013 can be found here.

The updated list approved at the Steering Group meeting of 25th March 2014 can be found here.

Other LNP Documents

A subgroup of the Steering Group has examined a number of areas in and around the village. This evaluation has resulted in a document describing areas to be Protected, areas for Improvement and Assets of community value (PIA). The document can be found here.
